I just replaced my direct drive starter for a gear reduction starter as the old was on it's way out. The truck sat for a month before I got around to doing it. After the new starter was in I hook up my batteries and go to start it. The starter fired fine but I think I lost prime in the fuel...
Well, until I get back there this morning with new batteries. I get in last night after a cookout at the in-laws and as I initiate the starter I hear an immediate blast that was equivalent to a .50 cal pop. The truck goes dead at this point and I'm wondering what in the world happened.
I just...
I've seen threads in the past where many say they're going to do it, but I'd like some input from those who've done it. I'm wondering what my best option is. I don't really want to convert to 12V, which would probably be the easiest route considering you could get the stuff from a civilian...

A tornado just ripped through my town Friday night(APR 10) very close to my house. I, being the helpful type, jumped in the truck and went into an area that had significant damage to see if I could aid anybody that may need help. There was only one police cruiser and 1 firetruck on the scene...

I trailered the vehicle back to east GA and to my dismay, I lost use of the trailer brake on the return...
I'm looking at recovering my M1009 from the armory at Redstone early next week (3-22 or 3-23). From what I've gathered, it seems my truck may run well and I could drive it home. But we know how that works, don't we? I'm asking if anybody in the N. GA/ N. AL area may be willing to loan me a...
Can you drive runners off from Redstone? I have family in Decatur that might be able to hold for me until I have the time to bring the M1009 back to GA.
thanks in advance
I'm looking at bidding and hopefully picking up a CUCV in a GL auction soon. I've read and researched quite a bit for the last couple of weeks trying to prepare the best I can for the day I go and pick the baby up. (yeah, yeah, yeah..... I've read all the pros and cons and know what I'm...
